The description has it in Yiddish and English

BTW, Yiddish has many dialects. And as in English there are more than one word for many things. Tate and mama may be used but so is muter and fater.

Ikh farshteyn. Ober, Yiddish began in the Rhineland and is based on Medieval High German but it contained (and still does) some Hebrew and Aramaic words. When the Jewish ppl migrated eastward into Slavic lands they began to borrow Slavic words (like bubbe & zayde). Some Yiddish is based on Latin. For example the term 'betn got" or benshen comes from benedictiōn. But mostly Yiddish is very old High German.
Interesting language.

i only know as deytsche wort dumai. it is derived from old high german. the yiddish language is a mixture von a lot of european languages. like father is called tate in yiddish and also in polonish.
Daniel jest cudny :)) Dziękuję za to nagranie!
